Tai Po gave the home side a couple of early scares with James Temelkovski and Igor Sartori finding themselves unmarked in good shooting positions but neither could get their efforts on target.
Ha Noi worked themselves into the game with Leo Artur finding Stefan Mauk at the back post but the midfielder was unable to get power into his shot which was eventually cleared.
The Vietnam side grew in confidence after that and made their dominance count with the opener in the 27th minute. Le Van Do scooped a pass into the box for Alves Rogerio to guide towards goal but the last touch came off the chest of Tai Po defender Gabriel Cividini.

Ha Noi increased their advantage six minutes later thanks to the vision of Artur, who found Rogerio with a delightful cross to the far post with the latter side-footing past Tai Po custodian Tse Ka Wing.
Tai Po had the chance to pull a goal back three minutes before the break through Sartori’s free-kick which Nguyen Filip saved before the Ha Noi custodian blocked Cividini on the rebound.

After the interval, there were strikes from Cividini, Van Do and Vitao which were whiskers away from finding the target but otherwise, the second proved to be a more cagey affair.
The post denied Ha Noi in the 74th minute when Alan crashed a powerful header from Artur’s free-kick onto it but the home side eventually got their third in the 89th minute when Phan Van Duc slid in to steer home Alan’s knockdown to seal the win.
